This module exploits a vulnerability found on Firefox 17.0 (< 17.0.2), specifically  
an use after free of an Element object, when using the serializeToStream method  
with a specially crafted OutputStream defining its own write function. This module  
has been tested successfully with Firefox 17.0.1 ESR, 17.0.1 and 17.0 on Windows XP  
SP3.
